Lord Edward Hugessen Brabourne Baron Moonshine: Fairy Stories internet üzerinden ibook

Originally Published 1871 Features 8 Ink Illustrations Newly Edited with new typesetting for ease of reading. 12 Short fantasy tales by author Lord Edward Hugessen Brabourne Baron about Fairies, Elves, Ogres, Dwarfs and Wizards From the Dedication of the book: Let us love the little Elves still, my children, and keep our childish fondness for them as long as we may. You will find in this book one or two old friends brought out in new garments. Why not? Mutton is mutton all the world over; but if out of the ancient roast mutton of the “Three Wishes” and the “Fairy Godmother” I have made “a haricot” and an “Irish stew” and called them “Potter’s Gift” and “Mulligatawny,” I don’t see that anybody has a right to complain. And in spite of the dull and learned people who object, I have given you an Ogre, a Dwarf, a Witch, a Wizard, quantities of Elves and Fairies, and several animals, who speak like mortal men and women. So I hope you will like the book, and think kindly of the Author, who loves you all well, and does his best to put pleasant, happy thoughts into your hearts as you read his stories.
